To be clear - I used WQGF, I liked it for efficiency, but I entirely think that it feels broken and has no place in a well designed MMORPG. People like WQGF because it lessens a pain point with WoW, not because it is fun.

But... the ability to find groups instantly still exists with the in-game tools. It just takes 3 button clicks instead of 1 (sometimes WQGF takes 3 as well tbf). And btw those weird feeling you describe are a lot less weird when you use the in-game functions

Addons streamline it to being a thoughtless experience. The UX is really important to consider here.

The core point is the important one - the quality of WoW's non instanced content. Blizzard are pretty lucky that WoW has a lot of monogamers because much of the time spend in WoW doesn't hold up to... well really most modern games in most genres.

With respect, that's what the issue is for YOU... but for the majority of people upset about this change its because they are very slightly inconvenienced creating a group, not because WQs are fundamentally at odds with MMO gameplay

Take the dynamic grouped events of Guild Wars 2 - that's a take on world content that is expressly designed to make use of the genre.

If you were to go a little more sandbox with it, then the systems of Archeage are SUPER interesting in how they use the format. Sadly it got cash shoped right up the wazoo. Point is that when you investigate other games, WoW comes up real short in this regard.

Can you please explain what you mean by 'sandbox', here? WoW has few systems in place to make a sandbox-style game a la GTA viable.

Ofc sandbox != PvP. So players doing X could cause Y to happen in the world.

Ah right. I get what you mean now. I can see potential for this to work using phasing technology, perhaps. On the other hand, what's to stop griefers stomping your carefully built sandcastle?
